To elaborate, he's very skilled and worthy of a high pick because of that BUT he needs a ton of work on his body. Like beyond KP level. It's gonna be a few years before he can play in the nba and factor in the SIM lag not worthy of that slot IMO. I had him going late first early 2nd.

I think he’s the next Dragan Bender


I'm trying to think of an NBA best case comp for him. Maybe Kukoc if he absolutely works out. But Kukoc was naturally kinda thick/stocky lol.

i love you but you know thats a lazy comp. If he fails its not because of his lack of skill its because his body doesn't hold up at the NBA level.

Bender was just dunkin on midgets overseas. Poku is by far the best passing big in the draft. And he moves like a guard around screens when he's a 7 footer.

Bender was simply getting dumped the ball and turning around and dunking in his scouting clips. He showed no skill.

personally don't like him. from all accounts he is slipping in the draft because people wonder if he can be anything more than a scoring guard off the bench because he doesn't pass well or defend at a high level and not a great decisoin maker.

RJ hampton if things click has more upside.

Cole not a bad pick at this spot for sure it was just personal preference.

Yeah I see him as potentially one of the better value picks in the real life draft. He might rise up late though, seems to be the feeling I'm getting of late...


thanks guys. Some have moved him up to the mid to late lottery. Do I buy him being a really good shooter? I don't know. But he seems to have taken really well to Mike Miller and the coaching about shaping his shot and I watched a videa from NBA draft junkies (rafeal) who lives in dallas and he went to one of his workouts and says the shot mechanics have siginficantly improved. If he becomes a halfway decent shooter he has next level shiftiness and explosion so another high reward pick for me.

If some don't pane out they don't, but wasn't going to go the safe route with all my picks.

If I only had 1 or 2 picks my thought process would have been different I would have picked probably guarunteed contributors...but this draft allowed me to take so shots at high risk guys. And I can always shift gears later.

I think some in the 20’s were hoping for Cole to be there. I expect to see some of those picks get traded now.

You think? Really there were guys that fit my need for wings and shooting much better than the guy I selected, but something about this guy just intrigues me.

I think with Cole it will be about how he takes care of his body, his work ethic and where he lands...He's not scared...
Don't know much about his background(i know who his dad is ofcourse - would have looked into it if i would have kept all of my mid-to late picks...

i know my boy hezi is high on him- that why I watched film on him...ultimately, ill put some money on him
having a higher ceiling than most expect...
